- Interests in Environmental History: In recent years I have dedicated my research to the study of university curricula that study nature (broadly understood) and its phenomena. From the 18th century onwards, many European universities opted to increase their curricular offer in the field of natural philosophy. Another aspect of my work also seeks to analyze the links between knowledge about nature and solving problems such as water resources. Analyzing practical ways of applying knowledge to problems resulting from natural phenomena.
